My comments on my latest temping assignment:

[offbalance]

All day today, those of us in the peanut gallery (me, Amy, Issac) were trying to remember this set of quotes. To state the reason would be redundant. (And they're from American Beauty, duh).

Brad Dupree: [reading Lester's job description] "My job requires mostly masking my contempt for the assholes in charge, and, at least once a day, retiring to the men's room so I can jerk off while I fantasize about a life that less closely resembles Hell." You have absolutely no interest in saving yourself, do you?

Lester Burnham: Brad, I've been a whore for the telemarketing industry for 15 years. The only way I could save myself is if I start firebombing.

(not that I would ever ever firebomb. just to state for the record.)

and Buffy was soooooo gooooood tonight!! I am so pleased.

oh yes. :) If you've never seen American Beauty, I'd seriously reccomend making it a priority. It's very fulfilling, in many ways.

There was some really good stuff, and there was some stuff that was really interesting/well-done, but there was also some stuff i really didn't like (as in had issues with characters or whatever, not the obvious EW EW OMG I'm gonna puke!!!!). But we can obsess once i'm home ('cause again, negative free time this week -- yes, i should be doing homework, but i'm starving so i'm on LJ for ten minutes until dinner is served).

I'll bet you're chomping at the bit for fall break. And if Mansfield Park is anything like the movie (yeah, I tend to like Jane Austen better when she's been adapted. for many reasons) it should be a lot of fun.

but yeah I hid behind one of those big brown pillows on my couch for most of the ep. but yes, we'll talk. I had a few issues as well, I suppose. But I'll have to watch it again and ponder.
